My WOW moment

This morning I got on the scale and it read 220! I only have 100 lbs more to go to get to my personal goal! When I started this journey, it seemed impossible to lose 176 lbs, but now I can see the light of the train in the distance! (It is a tiny light, but that train is coming!)

I know I am not in wONEderland yet,I'll get there... but it means that I have lost a total of 76 lbs since last January,(first mtg with Dr Pohl) and 42lbs since the surgery (10/1)
I am into a size 20 (from a 28) and feeling good about myself. I still have ALOT to learn. I know it is not all about numbers, but seeing that scale this morning empowers me to say
                                                                          "I CAN DO IT!"

Yeah Me!!!!
 and Thank you to ALL of you who have been an encouragement to me, You are the BEST!

Ruth ~ Hello.  Isn't it so exciting to see those numbers go down on the scale and feel those sizes go down?  Think it will feel really great to get on that train to better health.  You can do this....you really are doing this!
